Description

Poster from the 2008 'The City Wakes', the festival based in Cambridge, celebrating the life of Pink Floyd's Syd Barrett signed by Storm Thorgerson. 

Storm Thorgerson was a master of his craft, most well known for his cutting edge album cover artwork with artists including Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, The Alan Parsons Project, Yes, Al Stewart, Muse, Peter Gabriel, Genesis, Anthrax, The Mars Volta, The Cranberries and Biffy Clyro.

Storm Thorgerson delivered up some of the most iconic and recognisable music artwork and this poster was designed for this event remembering the life and music genius of his friend Syd Barrett.

The image was by all accounts also known by Storm Thorgerson as 'Green Doors' and 'S for Syd'.

Mounted in a matt black wooden frame the poster is in perfect condition and looks fantastic.

In pricing this item I was unable to find it anywhere else for sale to compare. However a limited edition archival inkjet print of the image of 40, signed and numbered by Storm Thorgerson sold instantly for £1000.00 each on a site called hypergallery.com

If you visit the site it shows a picture of Storm signing the prints.

This is an increasingly rare opportunity to own a superb Floyd related piece of memorabilia, personally signed by Storm Thorgerson.
